The Library CEO in consultation with the Perth East Public Library Board has developed written policies to assist the board and staff in ensuring the provision of fair, equitable and consistent service to patrons and responsible financial management of the library's resources.

A copy of the PEPL Policy Manual is available upon request by contacting the Library CEO. Alternate formats will be made available upon request.

The library gratefully acknowledges the support of the Perth Community Futures Development Corp and the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario in the development of this policy manual.
